Does it work? We have a policy of trying to support an ABI but not actually marking it supported without -ignoreABI until after it has been declared frozen by the X.org release manager. > Anyways nice work with the xserver xorg!! ___ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg

If I move the window its really slow i.g. if I grab the window with the cursor, and do a circle with the window the cursor is faster than the window, but watching a movie in firefox(hulu) with the popout window option doing a circle with the window, the window acts as should. keep in mind this is for the imac with the nvidia module from there web site. (I have not tried the nv xorg module yet). As for the macbook with the ati module(all kernel built-in modules) the window through mplayer acts as is. Justin P.
